No Tiene Licencia (Vanity)
Bruce Lewis.com ^ | 2006.04.23 | B-Chan

Posted on 04/23/2006 9:25:20 PM PDT by B-Chan

Here in the DFW area we have a new Spanish-language newspaper, La Tribuna. Unlike the two current Spanish-language dailies in our area, La Estrella and Al Dia (published by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and the Dallas Morning News respectively), La Tribuna is published independently in Arlington. A tabloid with a marked pro-illegal slant (headine of first edition: "Ya Basta Bush!", "Stop Bush Now!"), it's chock-full of the usual propaganda about how Mexicans were here first, no human being is illegal, burning the Mexican flag is wrong, etc. It's also full of ads -- many from well-known local merchants.

One of these ads caught my eye this weekend, and I'd like to share it with you. It's an ad for a local used car dealer (I digitized the name and address to avoid legal hassles) whose advertising copy leaves no doubt as to the demographic to whom they're selling. The ad (and my translation) appears below:

No credit, no citizenship, no driver's license required. I found that funny for some reason. I probably would have found it a great deal more funny had not two of the last three people to ram my car in traffic been illegal aliens with no insurance and no right to be here.

Un millar chistes...

Just wait till "Juan Morales" deafults on the monthly payments.

It's hard repo-ing on a guy with five different identities and no fixed address.

Believe it or not when Mrs. L and I bought our last vehicles we had to produce proof of insurance as well as copies of our drivers licenses. It seems a few years back some used car salesslug sold someone a car who's license had been revoked.

The buyer then proceeded to drive off the lot and kill someone while driving recklessly. Our State quite promptly changed the law.

Were I you I'd be forwarding a copy of this 'paper' to my local State Rep with a sternly worded letter demanding your State laws be changed to require that anyone purchasing a vehicle be able to produce both proof of insurance and a valid drivers license.

If they didn't get on board with the idea toot sweet I'd send a few lettters to my local newspapers detailing your Reps refusal to see it that only licensed drivers be able to purchase vehicles.

Just a thought..

burning the Mexican flag is wrong

Note to self: stock up on Mexican flags, lighter fluid and lighters...
Because if La Tribuna says it's wrong, it's probably the right thing
to do.

Isn't it a hoot that the LA Times the Dallas Star Telegram and the Fort Worth Daily News have each purchased or set up Spanish versions of their papers. The LA Times did it as long as thirty years ago. It's called La Opinion.

Anotherwords, the Times was ready to sell out over three decades ago.

In California, a car buyer without insurance must purchase one month's worth of auto insurance at the car dealership before they can drive off. You just know that after one month the illegals drop it like a hot potato.

I don't think these papers had any political motivation for publishing Spanish-language editions. I think they see it simply as one more way to sell column-inches. Politics be damned -- money is all that really counts in the newspaper biz.

It's the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and the Dallas Morning News, by the way...

Sorry, I meant to get the names right, but I flubbed them.

I disagee with your assessment. The LA Times understood the wave of illegal immigration and the quest for Aztlan long before most citizens did. They positioned themselves to survive even if our nation was over-run. I do not respect that even for the almighty buck.

I don't know anything about Texas law but it would seem that if the dealer knowingly sells a vehicle to someone who does not have the legal right to drive on our roads while illegally residing here (not just on "vacation") that the dealer just maybe liable in the case of an accident. I think I remember certain anti-second ammenders that have tried to bust out the firearms manufacturers when a criminal gets hold of a gun they had legally produced and sold. The business is probably illegal also so they probably don't care - it will all be like the wild wild west once Mexico reclaims "their" land. /sarcasm

I have a buddy that owns a couple of little car lots. Was there one day when someone came in to make their final payment. My buddy gave them a free oil change, later I asked him why the free oil change?

His reply "had to get my GPS unit back"

LOL!

Ever hear of a screwdriver? There's a reason you put your validation sticker on the windshield instead of on the tag in Texas.

In most all states it is illegal to turn a motor vehicle over to an unlicensed driver.

If the dealer gives a vehicle to an unlicense driver to drive off the lot, they have commited a crime. (ususally a misdemenor)

If the illegals gets into an accident before stopping, the dealer better have good insurance.

Since the PC crowd expects that all gov. literature, licenses, etc. have to be printed in Spanish as well as English, shouldn't the citizens of America demand that all Spanish versions of papers, magazines etc. be printed in BOTH languages!! Same for radio stations etc.....Maybe if the MSM would get sued over this, the dual language thing might not be such a hot topic for the PC crowd.

The same thing goes on here in Los Angeles. On the bright side, the dealerships who finance these cars usually charge an outrageous amount of interest and add-on charges. Basically, the dealers are screwing over the fools who buy cars from them.
